Incorporation: The ETF is an exchange-traded fund established as a trust under the laws of the Province of Ontario pursuant to a master declaration of trust dated May 12, 2009 as may be amended and restated from time to time.

Manager and Trustee: Jones Heward Investment Counsel Inc.

Fiscal Year End: December 31

Nature of Business: The ETF has been designed to replicate, to the extent possible, the performance of the Dow Jones U.S. Large-Cap Index (CAD hedged), net of expenses. The investment strategy of the ETF is to invest in and hold the Constituent Securities of the Dow Jones U.S. Large-Cap Index (CAD hedged) in the same proportion as they are reflected in the Dow Jones U.S. Large-Cap Index (CAD hedged). The Manager may also use a sampling methodology in selecting investments for the ETF. As an alternative to or in conjunction with investing in and holding the Constituent Securities, the ETF may invest in or use derivative instruments to obtain exposure to the performance of the Dow Jones U.S. Large-Cap Index (CAD hedged).

Transfer Agent & Registrar: CIBC Mellon Trust Company at its principal office in Toronto.

Distributions: Any cash distributions of income on Units of the ETF will generally be made quarterly, if at all, and are expected to consist primarily of dividends or distributions received by the ETF less the expenses of the ETF. To the extent that the expenses of the ETF exceed the income generated by such ETF in any given quarter, no quarterly distribution will be paid.

Initial Issuance of Units: Pursuant to the terms of the Prospectus, Units will be issued and sold on a continuous basis and there will be no maximum number of Units that may be issued. Units sold in connection with the initial public offering for the ETF will amount to 200,000 Units at a price of $15 per Unit.
